Three addiction clues for Facebook addict sufferers Take Pile’s “Facebook Compulsion Inventory” test to find out if you’re bordering 51/50 status. 1. Sleep is no longer a priority—Ah, but Facebook is! Forget about sleepless nights. When there’s Facebook, who needs any shut-eye at all? After all, you don’t want to miss an important Facebook status update. And, if you’ve agreed thus far, you may suffer from Facebook addiction. But don’t worry; you join a social network of potentially millions of other “sufferers” if it makes you feel any better. 2. You spend countless hours on Facebook, and when you’re out and about, your mobile FB is always nearby. If you’re constantly checking updates, posting photos, and chatting on FB, you may want to take inventory of how many hours you spend doing so. According to Pile, anything over an hour may indicate an addiction. And, when you’re constantly checking Facebook on your mobile, unable to part ways for any given time, you might have a problem. 3. You become a bit of a “secret admirer” (AKA stalker) on Facebook. Facebook is kind of like texting—so easy to flirt and be flirted with. After all, it’s the world’s greatest popularity contest. But, be weary if you start “friending” and following old flames. If you find you’re constantly checking their updates, commenting on their wall, and sending messages that borderline on inappropriate, you gotta bite the bullet and practice some self-control.
